The Regional Economics And Spatial Modeling (REASM) laboratory is a research center focusing on the development of theories and tools to model urban, regional and interregional economic systems. Founded in 2012 by Drs. Sandy Dall’erba and Daoqin Tong, REASM’s expertise consists in modeling spatial interactions based on techniques such as Geographical Information Systems, spatial statistics, spatial econometrics, interregional input-output and spatial optimization analysis. Applications cover fields as broad as regional economic growth, regional and local development, public policies, the housing market, public and private service facility location, farmers’ markets, transportation and, more recently, the impact of climate change on agriculture.
